Rub elbows with Jackie O's scandalous relatives, as Newington Mainstage presents the Connectcut Premiere of GREY GARDENS, the three-time Tony Award-winning musical, October 4-6. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the show's publicity photos below!
Meet Edith "Big Edie" Bouvier Beale and her daughter, Edith "Little Edie" Beale - once the highest of high society, who became East Hampton's most notorious recluses, living in a dilapidated 28-room mansion with 51 cats, cobwebs and virtually no plumbing. Set in two eras - 1941, when the celebrated estate was the picture of wealth and sophistication, and 1975, after it had been reduced to squalor - GREY GARDENS is the hilarious and heartbreaking look at two fascinating women and the love between a mother and daughter. Connecticut favorite Kelly Boucher does double duty as Edith Bouvier Beale (in Act One) and "Little Edie" Beale (in Act Two). Joining her on stage (as Edith in Act Two), Newington Mainstage is thrilled to be welcoming back Broadway's Carolyn Kirsch. Ms. Kirsch is a veteran of more than 15 Broadway shows over a 21 year period of working in theatre in New York City and beyond. Her many credits include the original companies of "A Chorus Line" (Theatre World Award), "Chicago" (with Bob Fosse), "CoCo" (starring Katharine Hepburn), among countless others.
Tickets are $25.00 for general admission and $20.00 for students and seniors. Tickets can be purchased online by visiting www.NewingtonMainstage.com, by phone by calling toll-free 1-800-838-3006, or in person at The Jewelry WearHouse (2434 Berlin Turnpike, Newington).
